Fuel Gas Tank Grommet and Shut Off ValveFits Craftsman, Coleman, Generac and other model Generators
We buy these high-quality US-made parts in large quantities so that we can pass the savings on to our customers. These are aftermarket parts in after-market packaging.
These valves fit many makes and models, too numerous to list. These fit into a 33/64" hole.
OPTIONAL VITON BUSHINGS:
Having problems with ethanol-based fuel deteriorating the bushings? Yeah, that ethanol-based fuel that's been pushed on us causes all kinds of problems!!!
Here's the deal nobody else will tell you:
Most OEM's and parts suppliers are using a standard "black" rubber sealing bushing. That material does not hold up particularly well over time when used with modern gasoline containing ethanol.
By popular request from our customers, we have recently had bushings produced using a special grade of Viton material instead of the original black elastomer used by most OEM
's. Viton
holds up significantly better when exposed to ethanol and most bio-fuels. If you are using fuel containing ethanol, we recommend that you consider the Viton part as it will last much longer. Viton is a bit more expensive than standard rubber, but it is well worth it if you are using gasoline with ethanol, as most of us are. Of course, if you are buying the special grade of ethanol-free gasoline, the standard "black" bushing works just fine, so we continue to offer it to our customers that want it.
VERY IMPORTANT FIT-UP INFORMATION:
These valves and bushings are designed to fit into plastic fuel tanks with a 33/64" hole
(0.516" if you are fortunate enough to own a pair of calipers)
. Some manufacturers have also used them with a specially rolled-edge hole in a metal tank. They are not for use in a drilled (non-rolled) hole in a metal tank because the sharp edge will cut the bushing and cause leaks. The Valve Barb is sized to fit 1/4" ID Fuel Hose.
